Weather and Warfare: A Climatic History of the 1798 Rebellion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781898256045)

Commemorations of 1798 sparked historical research into events that still reverberate in Ireland. Sources include folklore, poetry and song, newspapers, diaries, the previously unpublished Kilmaine weather diary, marine logbooks and instrumental observations. By combining this data, daily weather charts from May to October 1798 were constructed and they are the heart of this book.
